He Takes Dose of Laudanum and Calls
Help.
PROVIDENCE, r. I. April 25.-Doc Lew
Wilson took a dose Of laudanum with
suicidal intent at the Hotel Dorrance. The
night clerk found Wilson lying on the floor
of his room unconscious. His dress suit was
hid out on the stand, which also held lsttersl
evsdon6fy f)t redentIy written, addreesed to
his wife and other friends. Directions were
also left to the night clerN nstructing him
to clothe his remains in the dress suit and
make other arrangements in keeping with a
well-regulated suicide. A doctor was i'm
mediately summoned, and after working
upon him for several hours pronounced him
out of danger and put him to bed. The
dose taken was well calculated to end his
life, and only by the promptest discovery
and immediate action, with the administra-
tion Of coffee and emetics, was his life saved.
Wilson has been living very steady life
since his release from the Jail, and now ap-
parently deliberately attempted his life.
He called up the clerk by the speaking tube
and asked to be walked early. Some time
later he whistled in the speaking pipe again,
and was understood to say come up. A
servant answering the summons, found him
on the floor in the little reception room con-
nected with his chamber. If the retching
caused by emetics has not injured him he
will shortly be all right.

THE MORMON PROBLEM.

The Saints Confident of Retaining Con
troll of Utah.
WASHINGTON, April 27.-The Mormon
leaders, it is said, are confident that they
can retain control of Utah, in spite of the
new law. George Ticknor Curtis, the resi-
dent attorney of the Mormon church here,
expresses the opinion that the Mormons, act
ing under the new anti-polygamy bill, will
be able to carry all the town elections as
fast as they are held. The Mormons, he
thinks have discovered that they can con,
scientiously take the oath required by the
new law, and that being the case, if they are
permitted to vote, he believes that it will
not be possible to prevent the polygamists
from being everywhere triumphant at the
polls The officers who administered the
oath under the new law were at first dis
posed to ask questions of those who applied
TO take the oath, which the Utah commits
sioners declared to be improper, and the
asking Of which was subsequently forbidden.
Since that time the oathS have been very
generally taken by the Mormons The gov
ernment has not yet begun the pi osecutions
authorized by the new law and has given no
when the suits will be brought.

ST. JoHNsBURY, VT, April 27.-There
has been filed in the Office Of the clerk OF
courts here the decision of the supreme court
in the Ryegate conspiracy case, growing
out of attempts of granite workmen to pre-
vent the employment of other workmen by
the Ryegate company through threatening
to denounce them and make them odious
as non-union men. The opinion is by
Judge Henry H. Powers, who holds that
''the exposure of legitimate business to the
control of an association that can order
away it's employees, and frighten away 9TH
ers they may seek to employ, and thus be
compelled to cease the further prosecution of
its work, is condition of things utterly at
twar with every principle Of justice and
every safeguard of protection that citizens
under our system Of government are entitled
to enjoy. The direct tendency Of such in
timidation is to establish. over labor, and
over all other industries, control that is
unknown to law, and which is exerted by
a secret association of conspirators that is
actuated solely by personal considerations
and whose plans carried into execution, usn
ally result in violence and the obstruction OF
property"
The attempt to intimidate and boycott is
declared criminal conspiracy

THE WHALING INDUSTRY

Threatened With Great Damage by the
Commerce Law.
New BEDFORD, Mass, April 21.-fhe
great increase in railroad rates over the
various lines between this city and San
Francisco as a result of the interstate COM
merce law is likely to lead to material
changes in the method of conducting the
whaling industry. For several years past,
since the whale fishery became diverted
chiefly to the North Pacific ocean, it has been
the custom to keep the New Bedford
whaling feet stationed at San Francisco
and to send the captains and crews from
this place overland to join their vessels
The Catches" consisting of many thou
sands Of barrels of oil and large quantities
of whalebone have been shipped from San
Francisco to this market by rail. The
present high freight rates, if maintained
are likely to prove prohibitory, and
shipping men here think that the
old method of having the whaling ships
bring their cargoes around Cape Horn to
eastern markets will again have to be re-
sorted to. The result it is feared, will be
very discouraging, and Improbable to the
business.

has been denied him, although his friends
have managed to smuggle some in to him
occasionally. The abrupt cessation in the

Give Notice OF Panic, Social Rcvo

Give Notice OF Panic, Social Revolt
md Seizure Of the Government In
1880.
CHICAGO, April 27.-It is authoritatively
announced that the leader Of the "Red" In
ternational Workingmen's association, a
strictly secret society having branches in all
the western cities, proposes to have an
uprising in 1889. What would occur were
the uprising he counts ON successful is thus
outlined:
I'm 1889 the present panic will approach
a climax. 1t will be widespread and alarm
ing, accompanied by closed factories, starv-
ing workers and the use Of mill
tary. The time is not yet ripe for sue
cess: we have counted our heads, and we
know it.
when the working people are hungry
their brains weaken. One year of panic
means trebling Of our forces. And, while
with our present 1000 Socialists forcible
action is impossible, with 400, 600 what the
next panic win give us if they are wise), we
hold the game in our hands. We have, per-
haps until 1889, time in which to perfect
our plans. That year in Europe will surely
bring grave results. In America, if figures
lie not, another panic, greater, deeper, and
more widespread than the preceding will be
upon us. Then, and not till then, may we
risk cast Of the die. Then may we strike
to win.'
The article states that they expect to have
in the United States in 1889 at least 500, 600
earnest Socialists, divided somewhat as fol-
lows:
Chicago 25,OOO
New York 5000.
New England factory states 100, 600
Central coal and iron region 100, 600.
Colorado and the western states 30, 600.
The Pacific coast 0,0O0.
In the Atlantic and southern cities alto
gether 100000.
Scattered at various points 30, 600 more.
''Our people should head, lead, and con-
troll the popular revolt; should seize the
places Of power; should lay hands upon the
machinery of the government. Once in
stalled and in power, the revolutionary
committee should follow this course of ac-
tion. The DEGREES should at once be pro-
mulgated and enforced"
It is proposed to make Chicago the head
quarters of the uprising in 1889, which is to
follow the combination of the different
branches of the Internationalists, and quite
an elaborate program is outlined of the
manner in which the style of government
will be changed after the revolt has been
successful. The year 1889 is also the one
decided upon by the National Federation Of
Trade and Labor Assemblies as the one in
which the eight-hour rule should 60 into
effect.
